Build a tiny, water-cooled, 8-core gaming rig: Super-fast water-cooled PCs don’t have to double as monoliths. In fact, if you’re prepared to get out your Dremel and pretend you’re a modern-day MacGyver, you can squeeze an 8-core CPU, GeForce GTX 980 Ti card and water-cooling loop into a shoeboxsized case. Creating a striking PC like the one on this month’s cover isn’t easy, but it can be done. You’ll need to start with our guide to reorientating your hardware on p102, then move to the build guide on p82. Don’t worry if the thought of hacking up your case makes you wince – we also cover alternative options for building a similar system. Even if you don’t follow our feature to the letter, we hope it strikes an imaginative spark, and
spurs you to take your PC-building skills to the next stage.
